Mumbai: The three Bachchans — Amitabh, Jaya and Abhishek — will be seen together not in Pradeep Sarkar's new film, as the rumour mills suggest, but in a Rakeysh Mehra venture called Bhairavi, says the Big B.
The cast of Yashraj Films' untitled film now being directed by Sarkar in Varanasi has undergone a lot of changes, both real and imagined.
When Sarkar's blue-eyed girl Vidya Balan opted out, Konkona stepped in to play her role. Shabana Azmi's name was also mentioned in the cast. But the latest brainwave to hit the television channels is that all the three Bachchans will be together in the film.
Amitabh denies it and says: "Jaya and Abhishek are in Pradeep Sarkar's film. I am not. No one has approached me. And to my knowledge there's no role for me in this film. Of course, all three of us are keen to be seen together. And it will happen soon. But not in Pradeep's film."
The project being designed to bring the Bachchans together is Bhairavi. Rakeysh Mehra has already scripted the film set against the backdrop of music and familial heritage.
He plans to make it after his next project, the autobiographical Delhi - 6, which stars Abhishek Bachchan. The leading lady for the film is remains undecided.
About the ambitious opus, the Big B confirms: "Yes Bhairavi is definitely in the pipeline. Rakeysh has already sounded us out. All three of us — Jaya, Abhishek and me — are agreeable. But since it's a very big project, it requires a great deal of planning. As of now, Bhairavi is the only film bringing us together."
Incidentally, Jaya and Abhishek are not really 'together' in Pradeep Sarkar's film. Abhishek plays Rani's love interest. And Rani plays Jaya's daughter.
